I've heard stories about Bumper Boyz lack of quality -- so be cautious. They show up at all the big National swap meets (Hershey, Auburn, etc.) with two tractor trailers full of rechromed bumpers to sell. They'd probably have 64 Tbird bumpers on hand, but after a few months, the chrome may peel at the corners, or rub through to the underlying brass after a few polishings.

I purchased a 64 rear bumper on eBay for $30 recently and took it to a local chromer who re-did it for $240. Excellent work for $270 total. Unfortunately, 64 front bumpers rarely appear on eBay -- only the rear ones show up regularly. Good luck.
